"The Five Senses - Touch" is an etching by the French artist Abraham Bosse (1602–1676), created in the 17th century as part of a series depicting the five senses. Abraham Bosse was known for his detailed and didactic engravings, and this work exemplifies his skill in using the medium to convey complex themes and narratives. The series to which "Touch" belongs is a visual exploration of human perception and the ways in which the senses were understood during the Baroque period.

In "The Five Senses - Touch," Bosse presents a scene rich with allegorical and symbolic elements. The artwork typically features figures engaged in activities that require the sense of touch, such as embracing or feeling textures, to highlight the theme. The composition is carefully constructed to draw the viewer's attention to the tactile interactions between the subjects and their environment.

As with many of Bosse's works, the etching is notable for its intricate detail and the artist's mastery of the etching technique, which allows for fine lines and a high level of precision. The artwork serves not only as an aesthetic representation but also as a reflection of the scientific and philosophical inquiries of the time, particularly those related to the human body and sensory experience.

"The Five Senses - Touch" is part of a tradition of artworks that personify the senses, a common theme in European art during the Renaissance and Baroque periods. These works often served didactic purposes, educating viewers about the senses while also providing moral or philosophical commentary.

Today, the etching is of interest to art historians and scholars studying the Baroque period, as well as those examining the interplay between art and science in the depiction of the human experience. It is also appreciated by a wider audience for its aesthetic qualities and as an example of Bosse's contribution to the art of etching.
